According to the creators, VseeFace is a software tool that may be used for 3D character tracking in the.vrm format.

YouTubers, or Vtubers as they are colloquially known, are in dire need of programs like these.

A Vtuber would generally use a 3D or even 2D character to communicate their point whether broadcasting or discussing anything.

Vtuber may manipulate 3D figures in real time by using a camera or a webcam from a laptop.

Vtubers may use this application to execute their 3D characters, starting with body motions, face emotions, and even spoken facial expressions.

And it’s likely that viewers of Vtubers channels will be ignorant of who controls the 3D figure.

Begin your vtuber career on Linux.

VSeeFace is a free, highly adjustable face and hand tracking VRM and VSFAvatar avatar puppeteering tool for virtual youtubers that emphasizes strong tracking and good picture quality.
VSeeFace has features comparable to Luppet, 3tene, Wakaru, and other applications.
VSeeFace is compatible with Windows 8 and later (64 bit only).
VSeeFace can broadcast, receive, and combine tracking data via the VMC protocol, which also supports iPhone perfect sync via Waidayo.

Face tracking, which includes eye gazing, blinking, brow, and mouth monitoring, is accomplished with a standard webcam.
A Leap Motion device is required for the optional hand tracking.
A comparison of the face tracking performance with other popular vtuber applications can be found here.
VSeeFace is still included under its previous name, OpenSeeFaceDemo, in this comparison.

Being a Vtuber may be appropriate for those of you who are timid or dislike revealing your face to the camera.

Okay, this time I’d like to talk you how to run VseeFace on Linux (I’m using Xubuntu 20.04). vseeface expressions not working?

VSeeFace requires the following apps and utilities to run on Linux:

  1. webcams
  2. Vseeface You may obtain it from the official website by clicking here.
  3. Lutris
  4. WineHQ

I’m assuming you have all four of the aforementioned, and we’ll use Lutris to run Vseeface.

  1. Please open Lutris and choose Add Game, then navigate to the VseeFace.exe program that you downloaded from the official website and click OK.
  2. Please fill down the name of the game that will be added to the library in the Game Info section of the form, and choose Wine from the Runner Menu.
  3. The Wine prefix column of Game Options should point you to the wine directory, which is often located in /.wine, as seen below: 3.
  4. It is necessary to enable hidden files viewing on Home (CTRL + H) in order to locate this directory.
  5. Select the wine version from the Runner Options menu (I recommend using the latest wine).
    In addition, disable the DXVK/VKDD3D menus. If these are active, the user may see a “error stating that DirectX 11 is required to be installed” on occasion.

Please make any necessary adjustments to the other parameters to meet your requirements.
Following that, we attempt to run VseeFace, and the results are as follows:

It appears that VSeeFace does not show fonts?
This is due to the fact that VseeFace is unable to locate the Arial font in the Wine that we are using.
So, what is the answer to this problem?

You must have the arial.ttf font installed in order to be able to view fonts from Vseeface.
You may use VseeFace if you already have the arial.ttf font installed on your computer. If you don’t, you can download it and install it.
I hope you find it useful, and ENJOY it

Conclusion

VseeFace is an application that can be used for 3D character tracking in the.vrm format. Vtubers can run their 3D characters starting from body movements, facial expressions or expressions when speaking. Lutris is a Linuxbased app that allows you to control 3D and 2D characters by using a webcam or camera.
